A MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER
Player Cards are REQUIRED by the Highlands County Parks and Facilities Dept to use the Highlands Sports Complex WHEN YOU ARE NOT PLAYING IN A LEAGUE.
So, when you are playing in either the 20 game Winter League or in the 10 game Spring or Fall leagues- you do not have to have a Player Card while playing in any of the 3 leagues.
When you are not in one of those leagues, and you wish to use the Sports Complex....you are required to have the Player Card with you.
If you are year round resident (or need one for the 6 & 1/2 months between those 3 League playing times, then you need a full time card for a price of $26.88 per year.
Those at batting practice now who are year-round residents need a year-round card, probably by April 22.
Staff will be checking for Players Cards
Highlands Sports Complex staff will start checking cards after the Spring League ends, which is after April 22. So everyone taking batting practice on Tuesdays or Thursdays do not have to have a card before April 22 or in other words you need a card by April 22.
If you are only interested in batting practice during the several months leading up to the Fall 10 game season or before the 20 game season, then you are required to have a 6 month card which costs $16.13. DO NOT GET ONE OF THE 6 MONTHS CARDS NOW but get one next October or when you come down. The current rule is that someone getting a 6 month card NOW will have that card expire on July 1 and therefore you will have to get another card if you want to go to batting practice before the next winter seasons or Fall league.
I will be accepting $$$ to turn into the Parks Department or you can go get your own card. Their office is at 636 Fernleaf Avenue in Sebring, which is behind the Sheriff's office.
Please...DO NOT GIVE ME 88 CENTS IN CHANGE. Give me $27.00 and the extra 12 cents will be donated to our league until April 22, then you are on your own!!!
DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS TO IMPROVE OUR LEAGUE?
EMAIL YOUR COACHES OR TEXT THEM TO ME OR TO YOUR COACHES OR TO DICKIE COOK OR DONNIE DOBERT & THEY WILL SEND THEM TO ME - THEY WILL REMAIN CONFIDENTIAL IF YOU SO DESIRE.
Have a SAFE and Happy and Healthy Summer and we will see you at the BALLPARK
